Jean has already filled out the necessary paperwork should he decide to move forward with a campaign, Canadian newspaper Le Droit reports.

A statement released by his foundation, Yele Haiti, read, "Wyclef's commitment to his homeland and its youth is boundless, and he will remain its greatest supporter regardless of whether he is part of the government moving forward. At this time, Wyclef Jean has not announced his intent to run for Haitian president. If and when a decision is made, media will be alerted immediately."
